The difference between a great research seat and a frustrating one rarely shows up in the job description — it's compute, freedom to set direction, and whether the org actually ships what research produces. We work closely with labs and AI startups across post-training, generative audio and multimodal work, so we know where those things are real. The teams we'd introduce you to care about your taste and your ambition, not just your publication list.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
Graduate Consultant — 2026 Scheme

StrongYour economics background and your summer at a regional bank line up with what PwC looks for on the consulting scheme. Applications close in four weeks.
See breakdownIt searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Why you're a good match
You’ve got the grades and the economics background, and your bank internship is exactly the experience this scheme looks for. Apply soon — deadlines close within the month.
Experience fit
Your summer at the bank plus your econometrics coursework map directly to the day-one responsibilities on this scheme — client modelling, market briefings, and deal support.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The opportunities
Salaries across these roles run up to £300k+, with equity on top. You'd own a research direction end to end — from first idea to a model that's trained, evaluated and live in production, often within days rather than quarters. The compute is real, the baselines are meaningful, and results don't sit in a paper queue.
You could work on
- Driving a research agenda from idea to trained, evaluated model
- Post-training, generative or multimodal problems, depending on the team
- Rigorous experimentation against baselines that actually matter
- Carrying research from prototype through to production
